Establishment of Multiparametric Prediction Models for Moderate to Severe Thyroid Associated Ophthalmopathy
Thyroid-associated ophthalmopathy (TAO) is an organ-specific autoimmune disease closely related to thyroid disease, which leads the incidence of orbital disease in adults and is the most common cause of diffuse toxic goiter (Graves disease, GD). The clinical manifestations of TAO are complex and varied. In severe cases, it may seriously impair visual function, affect daily life, and even cause corneal ulceration, perforation, and blindness. Therefore, a reasonable and effective treatment plan should be chosen according to the degree of TAO. The aim of this clinical study is to: 1. Found the new diagnostic markers or imaging sequences. 2. Establish and validate a multimodal and multiparameter prediction model for moderate to severe TAO.
• According to the Bartley criteria,diagnosed TAO at our hospital after 2024/8/31
• Moderate to severe patients defined by EUGOGO
• CAS ≥3 (on the 7-item scale) for the study eye
